Global Beauty CHI Ceramic Hair Straightener

I bought my Chi about six months ago. Something was wrong with the electrical circuit with the first one, so I had to return it. Now, when I'm vacation abroad, the second one has broken - it isn't turning on. I like how it straightened my hair, but this constant breaking means I cannot recommend this product to anyone.

I love this straightener! It gets my hair stick straight like I like it. I hate kinks and all the other straighteners I've had, I would keep going over the kink several times to get it out. The kink would always come back. With the chi, I go over the kink once and it's gone and it stay straight all day. It doesn't fry my hair and it leaves my hair soft and shiny. I gets extremely hot though..

I bought this product on Ebay a few months ago for $60 CAD and I've been using it about twice a week on my hair. I have pretty wavy hair, and it's also pretty puffy when dried with a blow-dryer. This straightener, for the amount of money I spent on it, works relatively well. Gets hot enough to make my hair poker straight, curly or wavy. The only problems I have with it is it does seem fairly breakable, and there is no heat setting. Other than that, it's a good starter iron, and a good buy.

It's easy to do different styles to your hair, plus it's not hard to get the hang of. The Chi heats up fast and lasts a long time.

This is overall a wonderful straightener! I've used many different brands in the past, but the Chi is definitely my favorite. You can straighten, curl, wave, flick.. pretty much do anything with it because of the rounded edges. It gets very hot-yes, there is no heat dial but it heats to the perfect temperature, for thin hair you simply don't have to keep going over it-so getting perfect hair is very fast and very easy. It also DOES NOT damage your hair like crazy, instead it leaves your hair silky, smooth and shiny even without heat protectant spray (you should still use it, though) My first one did break after having it for about a year because the plug-in got messed up, but all I had to do was send it in and they gave me a brand new one completely free even though I wasn't under warranty still. Mine cost me about $250 which is definitely reasonable for the amount I use it and the quality of the product. It has also been voted "Best Ceramic Iron" by many magazines.

Basically, a must have beauty product! xox

global beauty chi is the worst hair straightner i have ever had!! it i only had it for six months and it broke. my hair always got cought in it and it tottaly dried it out.

i bought the CHI for $60 at Costco and at first i was really excited. I mean it's better than the Conairs i had before but it wasn't a huge deal.I have very thin hair so it burnt it alot since i can't control the temperature.It is fast though and gets it really straight.

I have been using this Global Beauty CHI Ceramic Hair Straightener for two years now and my hair was never damaged. I love it cause i spend only 20 min in the morning to style my hair and thay look healthy.

After using the chi many times on myself I am not impressed. The iron works great do not get me wrong, it defiantly gives you the pin straight hair look. However, that straight hair has cost me, leaving dead dull dry hair. All my friends that have it, even using chi products also have dead dull hair. The CHI does not let you control the amount of heat, therefore it can damage hair. I think for the price you are better off spending 240 on the GHD, the ghd is the most amazing product. I think that is an understatement, this tool leaves hair silky. I have thick coarse hair and it straightens my hair and leaves moisture I thought i never had. I have always had a problem with frizziness, it controls all the fly aways and frizz. I am telling you after years of being an expert with hair the GHD is the best you can get!

Great overall
